A combined DVB-T/DVB-T2 or DVB-C or DVB-S/DVB-S2 PCIe card from DVBSky.

The card is identical to Mystique SaTeCaBiX.

Overview/Features

  • PCI-e x1 low profile card
  • Single Tuner DVB-S/DVB-S2 card
  • Single Tuner DVB-T/DVB-T2/DVB-C card
  • IR Receiver
  • Remote Controller

Identification

 Device: 14f1:8852 (rev 04)
 Subystem: Device 4254:9580

Technical Details

  • Name: T9850/5950 Ver. 1.0a 121106
  • Chip : Conexant PCIe A/V Decoder CX23885-15Z PFAC6621B 1249CN
  • Chip : Si2168 30 1253A00081 (for DVB-C/DVB-T/DVB-T2)
  • Chip : M88DS3103 4K51188.1 FPC1221NQ (for DVB-S/DVB-S2)
  • The card is identical to Mystique SaTeCaBiX




Drivers

There is no open source driver in mainline kernel for this card. But Linux drivers can be downloaded from the DVBSky support website.

Most of the driver is open source, except the driver for the Si2168 chipset. This is only a proprietary closed source module called sit2.o and is shipping for 32 Bit and 64 Bit Linux Kernels with and without DVB-C support.


Making it Work

As of October 2013 it is not working with Kubuntu 13.10 and the media_build_bst_130806 Drivers from DVBSky according DVB-C.

The driver is loading and detecting the card, but more then a successful channel scan isn't possible.

No TV program can be watched. DVB-S/DVB-S2 and DVB-T/DVB-T2 wasn't tested by me.


Working for Ubuntu 12.04 an 13.04

Please feel free to correct this.

Update:

Works

Today I test this card with both DVB-S/S2 and DVB-T in Timisoara - Romania (DVB-T signal from Hungary - Szentes). I try to receive DVB-T2 signal from Serbia (Avala or Crveni Cot) but I don't receive any signal, maybe card doesn't work with DVB-T2 or my antenna doesn't receive any signal. I use VDR 2.1.2 with streamdev as back-end and VLC to watch channels and work very well, both adapter. I try w_scan and work.

I use latest driver from dvbsky website.
